Abstract
A method, a computing device, and a non-transitory machine-readable medium for identifying a set of transactions directed to a contiguous chunk of data, even if received out of order, determining the data chunk size from the set of transactions, and for sequentially retrieving data chunks using the data chunk size is provided. In some embodiments, the method includes receiving, by a storage system, a set of data transactions from an initiator. The storage system identifies a subset of the set of data transactions that is directed to accessing a first chunk of data and determines, from the subset of transactions, a chunk size of the first chunk of data. The storage system sequentially retrieves a second chunk of data based on the determined chunk size.
